They thought they would have to go to bed hungry, because in that small inn in New Jersey, no meals were served(服务) after seven. They were therefore surprised when the receptionist(接待员) asked whether they would take dinner there that night.“Are you still serving dinner?” asked Mr. Smith.“Yes, certainly, sir,” answered the man. “We serve it until half past nine.”“What are the times of meals then?” asked Mr. Smith.“Well, sir,” answered the man. “We serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine.”“But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of London!” said Mrs. Smith. 1．Where did Mr. and Mrs. Smith always spend their summer holidays in the past?____________________________________________________2．Why did Mr. and Mrs. Smith decide to stay at a really good hotel?____________________________________________________3．When did Mr. and Mrs. Smith get to the hotel of London?____________________________________________________4．How long is the breakfast time in the hotel?____________________________________________________5．When does the lunch begin in the hotel?____________________________________________________China is a very big country.

Perhaps it is the best for parties. However, if you are playing sports, soda is not a good drink. The fizzy and sweet drinks may make you uncomfortable when exercising.

They are very important signals(信号). Traffic lights are usually placed at busy street corners to help control traffic. Sometimes, they are on streets near schools and shops, too. Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means, so everybody can stay safe.The first traffic signals were used for trains. The signals were put alongside railwayred light was also the easiest color to see from a distance. Train drivers could see the red “stop” light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains. A green light was used to mean “take care” and a white meant “go”．However, there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks. Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant “go”. So the signals were changed. The “go” light was changed to green and the “take care” light was changed to white.During these times, people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses. Years later, when cars were built, people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses. However, the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads. Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.Today, towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights. Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways. Yellow lights are easy to see, so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.26．Where are the traffic lights placed?They are placed at ________________ or on streets near schools and shops.27．What was the color red used to do in the first traffic signals?It was used to _______________.28．What did it mean when people saw a white light?It meant that people could ________________.29．What did people think of cars after they were built?They thought travelling by cars was ________________ than horses.30．What is the writer's purpose of writing the last paragraph?The writer wrote it to ________________ the passage.Someone once said that everyone talks about the weather, but no one ever does anything about it. This was true in his day. But it may not be the case in today's world. In fact, humans have found many different ways to control the weather.Cloud seeding(云催化) is a kind of technology that can control rain. It is done by spreading chemicals like dry ice or silver iodide(碘化银) inside of clouds, either by rocketsamount of rain, the time when it rains and even where it rains.This technology has helped to solve droughts when it is short of rain. It has also played a key role during important events. For example, China used cloud seeding in Beijing just before the 2008 Olympic Games in order to stop rain from falling during the event.However, scientists are still discussing how to use this technology. On the one hand, it is believed that it might have bad effects. For example, silver iodide may be bad for the environment. On the other hand, no two clouds are the same, so every new experiment introduces new conditions.In addition to controlling rain, scientists have also tried to find ways to weaken storms and strong winds. Scientists at the US National Hurricane Centre Headquarters think it might be possible to control strong winds by using lasers. Others believe that burning petroleum(石油) in the path of a strong wind could slow the storms down.31．What can we learn from the first paragraph?Nowadays there are many different ways to ________________．32．How does the cloud seeding happen?It happens when rockets or airplanes spread chemicals ________________．33．What are the advantages of cloud seeding?It can help solve droughts and is useful during ________________．34．What does “it” in the fourth paragraph refer to?It refers to ________________．35．What will possibly be used to control hurricanes?According to the scientists in the US, ____________ will possibly be usedChocolate is now one of the most popular foods in the world. However, it’s not just a modern treat. In fact, chocolate, or rather, cocoa seeds(可可籽) has been part of our cooking history for thousands of years.More than 2,000 years ago in Central America, the Mayan people began making a drink out of cocoa seeds. It was called xocolatl, meaning bitter(苦) water. The Mayans used xocolatl in important events of human life, like birth and death. They also believed drinking it would improve their health and treat illnesses. Cocoa seeds became highly valued throughoutIn the 16th century, an explorer, Hernando Cortez, brought the drink back to Spain. The Spanish didn’t like the bitter taste and added sugar to meet their taste. The chocolate was quite similar to the sweet treat we know today.Chocolate was popular in Spain, but it didn’t spread to the rest of Europe until nearly a hundred years later. A Spanish princess married the French king and made chocolate popular. By the 17th century, the chocolate drink had won widespread popularity in France, and a Frenchman opened the first chocolate house in London. Soon, chocolate drinks were sold everywhere in London.In 1847, a British man named Joseph Fry developed “eating chocolate”, which was a kind of chocolate bar (棒) made of very small cocoa pieces, butter and sugar. This made more and more people fall in love with chocolate.36．What does the writer think of chocolate?It is not only a modern treat, but also part of our ________________ for thousands of years. 37．Why did the Mayans usually drink xocolatl?They thought that the drink would ________________ and treat illnesses.38．How did the Spanish deal with the bitter drink?They ________________ to make it sweet.39．What happened after a Spanish princess married the French king?The chocolate spread widely and became ________________ in Europe.40．When did chocolate bars first appear?They first appeared ________________.参考答案1．In New Jersey.2．Because Mr. Smith made a lot of money in his business.3．They arrived at the hotel late one evening.4．Four and a half hours.5．At twelve/12 o’clock.6．Seven/7.7．Shenyang8．For four months.9．It’s cold, wet and not very long.10．It’s very hot and dry.11．a parent-teacher meeting12．a little worried13．sweet and lovely14．on Wednesday15．poor16．Six17．water and soda18．make you uncomfortable19．water20．the popular drinks in the US21．Yes, she does.22．Three.23．She must read a book after dinner.24．The students have to wear the school uniform on schooldays./On schooldays. 25．Because she thinks they are cool.26．busy street corners 27．warn people of danger 28．go(without stopping) 29．much faster 30．slowing down31．control the weather 32．inside of clouds 33．important events 34．using the cloud seeding 35．lasers36．cooking history 37．improve their health 38．put/added sugar into it 39．popular40．in 1847。

任务型阅读（一）Reading is a good habit, but the problem is, there's too much to read these days, and too little time to read every word of it. (83) There are hundreds of skills to help you read more in less time. Here are two skills that I think are especially good.Preview--if it's long and hard. Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading like long magazine articles and business reports.Here's how to preview.●Read the first two paragraphs and the last two paragraphs carefully.●Then read only the first sentence of the other paragraphs.Previewing doesn't give you all the details. (84) It keeps you from spending time on things you don't really want--or need--to read.Skim--if it's short and simple. Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading --like popular magazines or the sports and entertainment of your daily paper.Here's how to skim.●Get your eyes to move fast. Sweep them across each line.●Pick up only a few key words in each line.Everybody skims differently. You and I may not pick up the same words when we skim the same piece, but we'll get a similar idea of what it's all about.A. 根据短文内容简要回答问题。

A man takes out his phone and starts talking loudly about problems he’s having with his girlfriend. He talks for almost ten minutes! This happens all the time---on buses, in restaurants, everywhere!Many people find cell phones useful in their daily life. But we’ve all sat next to someone talking too loudly on a cell phone. You may want to tell the loudmouth to end the conversation, but let the manager take care of those （1）________customers. You can only control your own behavior. Here are few rules:Off means off! Follow the rules of restaurants and other public places. If a sign says “turn off cell phones”, don’t use your phone. If you are allowed, speak softly and for a short time and try to move away from other people.Lights off , phone off! Never make calls in a theater or at the movies.Pay attention! Talking on a cell phone （2）________driving is dangerous. And watch where you’re going when you’re walking down the streets and talking on the phone.As more people use cell phone, things are only going to get worse. So, the next time you’re getting ready to make a call, stop and consider the people around you.任务一：请根据短文内容，分别写出（1）、（2）处所缺单词。

专题限时检测(二十六)　任务型阅读(一)(限时24分钟)A(2019·南京、盐城一模)As the concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has gone global, we've watched professionals fail as they try to improve their emotional intelligence because they either don't know where to focus their efforts or they haven't understood how to improve these skills on a practical level.In our work consulting with companies and coaching leaders, we have found that if you're looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve — and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually.The first step is to get a sense of how your self­perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you)．This is especially true for the development of emotional intelligence because we can be blind to how we express and read the emotional components of our interactions.For example, most of us think that we're good listeners, but very often that's really not the case.Without this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance.Getting feedback from others can also provide proof of the necessity of shifting our behavior and motivation to do so.To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self­perception and reputation, you should use a 360 degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple facets of EI.The key is to find one that guarantees confidentiality to those giving you feedback and that is focused on development and not on performance assessment.Secondly, when you get your feedback from an assessment, let that inform what you want to improve.But also consider what your goals are.When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence, you're at a huge disadvantage if you're only interested because others said you should be.Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically (内在地) motivated to make the effort matters more when changing longstanding habits than it does when simply learning a skill.That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at theintersection of the feedback you've gotten and the areas that are most important to your own aspirations (渴望)．Understanding the impacts of your current EI habits relative to your goals will keep you going over the long haul as you do the work of strengthening your emotional intelligence.Once you've determined which EI skills you want to focus on, identify specific actions that you'll take.If you're working on becoming a better listener, for example, you might decide that when you're conversing with someone you'll take the time to pause, listen to what they have to say, and check that you understand before you reply.Keep it specific.You should also take every naturally occurring opportunity to practice the skill you're developing, no matter how small.By starting to change your routine reactions, you'll be well on your way to figuring out the old habits that aren't serving you well and transforming them into new, improved ones that do.PassageoutlineSupporting detailsIntroduction Though globally acknowledged, EI still (1)________professionals, for they aren't aware how to improve it.Spot the(2)_______betweenself­perc­eptionandreputation·With external reality check, we are(3)_________ of understanding ourinteractions accurately.·We are (4)________to change our behaviorby getting an outside feedback.·We are expected to (5)_________ howself­perception differs from reputation inall aspects.Find out what(6)______ to us·We should clearly (7)________our goals andfocus our effort on improving ourselvesinstead of just learning a skill.·(8)________the outside feedback with ourgoals can give us support on the way tostrengthening our EI.Approachesto strengthening EIIdentify what changesBe (9)_________about the actions and take advantage of every possible opportunity towe will make practice EI skills.Summary (10)________useless old habits and develop new ones in areas forimprovement others have identified with your own goals tostrengthen your EI.语篇解读：本文主要讲述了提高情商的方法。

[一]Hi, my name is Christina Baum. I'm a fourteen-year-old German student. I'm writing to tell you about an experiment we are doing at school with our Science teacher. At the beginning of this school year, Frau Keller showed us films and we read articles about problems in the environment. One day she said,"I want to know what you think. Please don't tell me what we should do or must do. Tell me what each of you will do to protect (保护）the environment. ”She asked us to choose a topic，make a weekly plan and tell the class about it. Then we had to do things to be "green” and write a report about our achievements. Some students said that they thought it was impossible for a single person to contribute(起作用）to the protection of the environment. Someone else said that scientists should work harder to find new ways to produce energy.Frau Keller said that it is everyone's job to care for the health of the planet. After the first week everybody in class was excited about the project and wanted to continue to improve their results. Someone suggested telling the other classes in the school. Now all 768 students at Hermann Stein School are working on the project. At the end of the year, our class will write a report about what we have achieved.Next week I'll think about how not to waste water or make it dirty. I'm planning to try and use less water every day，and also not use so much of the things that make it dirty.Every time I turn on the tap(水龙头），I must think about how much water and soap I use. To use less water, this is what I'll do：-—take a shower instead of baths ；—turn off the tap while brushing my teeth；—use less washing-up liquid(液) when washing dishes.If you want to know more or join us，please write an email to the following address ；k, ke ller@hermannsteinschool. de1 .根据短本内容完成句子填空空限填一个单词）。

The Grand Canyon（科罗拉多大峡谷） is a large river canyon in Arizona. It is over220 miles long and over a mile deep in some places. Its widest point is 18 miles wide. The canyon is considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.Over millions of years, the Colorado River wore away rocks as it passed through the area. Slowly, the river made the path deeper and deeper. Now, the canyon is surrounded by steep walls on either side, while the river continues to flow at the bottom of the canyon.Besides its large size, the Grand Canyon is also known for its magnificent colors. The canyon is made of layers of rock（岩层）, and each layer of rock has a different depth and color. Geologists have identified almost 40 different layers of rock exposed by the rivers erosion.The climate in canyon area is primarily desert, with both high and low temperatures. The upper rims of the canyon often receive snowfall. The air quality is usually very high, although dust storms and smoke from fires can change the air.The Grand Canyon is home to a variety of plants and animals. Plants range from various species of cactuto pine forests. Many types of animals live in the area, including the bald eagle, bobcats, bats and gila monsters.
